Description
Super Microsilica Gel
Super Microsilica Gel is an advanced and enhanced additive based on polycarboxylate ether, consisting of microsilica powder, superplasticizer, water-repellent materials, and polypropylene fibers. This product is used for producing high-strength, impermeable, and durable concrete. The superplasticizer improves the rheological properties of concrete in its plastic state and enhances the properties of hardened concrete. As a super pozzolan, Super Microsilica Gel has a significant impact on increasing the strength, durability, and other characteristics of concrete. The addition of this strong water-reducing additive fills the voids between aggregates, increasing the density and cohesion of the concrete, thereby reducing its permeability.
Features Super Microsilica Gel
- Reduces cement consumption by 10 to 15 percent
- Lowers the water-to-cement ratio by up to 20 percent
- Improves the strength and durability of concrete against freeze-thaw cycles
- Increases workability time of concrete in the plastic state
- Prevents separation of aggregates and water bleeding in concrete
- Enhances compressive, flexural, and tensile strength of concrete
- Facilitates concrete pumping and reduces wear and tear on equipment
- Reduces permeability against sulfates, water, and chloride ions
- Compatible with all types of Portland cement
- Increases the workability of concrete without the need for additional superplasticizers
- Compensates for the lack of filler and fine aggregates, improving the paste texture
- Produces highly workable concrete and smooth, exposed surfaces
- Prevents the formation of surface cracks
- Results in high-density and well-compacted concrete
Applications
- Suitable for producing explosion-resistant concrete
- Ideal for large-scale concrete pours

How to use
This Super Microsilica Gel can be added to the concrete mix in two ways:
- First, combine the Super Microsilica Gel with all or part of the mixing water, then add it to the dry materials and mix thoroughly.
- The Super Microsilica Gel can be added after all the other components have been added to the concrete mix.
Note: For every cubic meter of concrete, at least 1 minute of mixing is required. Note: If there is a long delay between mixing and pouring the concrete, it is recommended to add the Super Microsilica Gel in two stages: one portion during the concrete production in the batching plant, and the second portion 5 minutes before pouring into the truck mixer. After adding, mix the batch for about 2 to 4 minutes.
